Deputies arrest a Nebraska man found walking away from a stolen car on the Interstate.

Saline County Sheriff's Deputies were dispatched to mile post-80 on I-135 at 12:45am Tuesday - after motorists reported a man walking southbound along the interstate.

Sheriff Glen Kochanowski tells KSAL News that deputies offered the man a ride to town to help out, but when he refused they ran the license tag for more information.

The investigation revealed the 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix was reported stolen from Hebron, Nebraska.

Deputies arrested 24-year old Adam Bortle of Neligh, Nebraska, for possession of stolen property.

Did they ever think of running the plate first? That would have been the think to do.

The stupid guy should have taken the ride to town then given them the slip. Talk about a force of Barney Fife's.

Looks like Todd P. is not going to enforce his rules he always gets on here with as this t-bone character seems to be able to call everyone names and do what he wishes without any consequences from Todd so evidently everyone can now do it.
